In 2017, the centenary of
our home country's independence, Marimekko celebrates the Finnish creative
culture and design heritage. The Fall/Winter 2017 collection was inspired by
Finnish art, architecture and folklore and the mysticism of national epic
Kalevala, and how the influence of Finnish nature can be seen in the country's
culture overall.

During the presentation
Marimekko will also premiere a film, directed by renowned Polish-Swedish fashion
photographer and director Kacper Kasprzyk. Filmed in different locations in
Helsinki, the film shows the ordinary from an interesting point of view.
Kasprzyk was also inspired by the craftsmanship of Marimekko's textile printing
factory in Helsinki.
